I am very disappointed. To me, it sounds like Rollins is practicing in his own room, and the drummer is practicing in his own room. The drumming is very distracting, and Rollins seems to be throwing out notes with no cohesion. Chaos comes to mindI will definitely not be playing it again. It's very disappointing considering the effort made to produce the records, the CDs, and the fancy booklet. The record set is very expensive at $69.
